GrowAllot 2025 is back!

Following last years phenomenal success, Forager & Bohernabreena Allotments are giving 10 new growers the opportunity to WIN one of 10 allotment beds for grow season 2025.

Each GrowAllot Winner has received a 1m x 3m allotment bed in Bohernabreena Allotments for grow season 2024, in the most beautiful surroundings of the Dublin Mountains.

THE PRIZE

GROW YOUR OWN FOOD

Right now, the waiting list for allotments in Dublin is up to 4 years. With the GrowAllot programme, our winners get an opportunity to get their seeds into the ground and grow delicious homegrown food this season!

Over the coming months, Feebee & Sika will mentor the Growers and guide them through their grow adventure. Follow along to pick up their top tips on how to grow the food you love to eat. From sowing to harvesting, learn the skills that you’ll carry with you for life.

MENTORSHIP

Applications now closed!

Stay tuned to meet the GrowAllot Winners!

The Rules

  1. Winners are selected in good faith and are expected to follow the rules of Bohernabreena Allotments. Breaches of rules will result in withdrawal of prize and allotment.

  2. Winners must be able to travel to and fro from Bohernabreena Allotment on their own steam. There is no public transport and its not in walking distance to the nearest bus so a car is a must.

  3. Winners must be available to attend the grand launch on 26th April 2025 when first access will be granted to the allotment space.

  4. Due to the tight space of the GrowAllot plot, dogs are not permitted in this plot.

  5. Bohernabreena Allotments is situated in the Dublin Mountains, so winners must be in close enough proximity to travel there.

  6. We operate on a “grow or go” policy - if you do not work your land, it will be redistributed.

Rules are not exhaustive and are subject to change.
